Hi everyone!

My name is Danielle and I am looking to achieve a big weight loss!

I am 36, 5’8” and 325lbs. I am married and have a 13 year old daughter and a 1 1/2 year old son.

Looking for some weight loss buddies no matter the goals.

My husband had weight loss surgery last year but because of a kidney issue and misaligned anatomy, surgical weight loss is not an option for me. It had taken me 14 years to gain this weight from 195lbs so I don’t expect it to come off overnight, but I’d like to find people to share motivation with during the process.

Big goal: 150lbs
First goal: 12 lbs by June 30

Looking forward to some new sidekicks :)

-Danielle

    You can do it!! IMO, you're already starting off on the right foot by having a long term goal and setting mini goals.

    Feel free to add me as well. I have about 100 pounds to lose as well. I'm trying to think of it as 10 pounds at a time....seems less overwhelming that way. :)
